Woe September!

~~I'm not happy with September. I haven't had a good one. Among the woes, there's a prolonged illness that caused me to lose seven pounds in three weeks. I just wouldn't recommend the weight-loss method to anyone. : ( Add to that the back problems that have made sitting at the computer or anywhere hard and John's mother's broken hip setback and you get the picture.~~Helen's bones are not healing well and we had to stop therapy. She is now at home with twenty-four hour care and using a transfer board. It takes two and John has been helping the help since Monday. He's worn out.~~The puppies agree that this week didn't start too well. They were neutered on Tuesday. All's well though and the active little boys are at their antics again. Cow hoof, anyone?~~On a positive note, I did get to the Decatur Book Festival on September 5 and met my favorite author, Diana Gabaldon. : ) I'll tell you more next week when her newest Jamie and Claire book is published and in my hot little hands.

About Me

Welcome to the Shade, where I push books on unsuspecting blog readers! Because I've always loved words and have written since I realized that the words I love were written by someone, I feel the need to share. Poetry, prose, lyric--it doesn't matter what form or genre. Words inspire, entertain, and enlighten. My writing explores many different forms--fiction, poetry, devotional literature, and history. So, settle in, get comfortable and prepare to find a good read. ;-)
